Turbomachine components and compressors are provided. The turbomachine component includes a platform and a mounting portion that extends from the platform. The mounting portion includes a dovetail received by a slot defined in the turbomachine. The slot includes a floor and a ceiling. The dovetail includes an inner surface and an outer surface. A hole is defined in the dovetail from an inlet at the inner surface to an end wall. The hole has a cylindrical portion and a tapered portion. A mechanical spring is disposed within the hole and in contact with the floor and the end wall such that the outer surface of the dovetail is forced into contact with the ceiling of the slot.

An attachment device attaches a plurality of attachment target members to an attachment portion formed in a circumferential direction of a rotating main body portion. A first measurement unit measures a physical amount concerning a perimeter of the attachment portion. An attachment unit attaches, to the attachment portion, the plurality of attachment target members selected based on the physical amount concerning the perimeter measured by the first measurement unit. A second measurement unit measures a physical amount concerning a gap between the adjacent attachment target members to be attached by the attachment unit.

The invention relates to a guide vane ring for a turbomachine comprising at least one guide vane, at least one bearing body, and at least two inner ring segments. The guide vane has a bearing journal that is arranged in a in form-fitting manner in a bearing bush of the at least one bearing body. The at least two inner ring segments have on their respective outer radial faces a guide channel running along a circumferential direction of the guide vane ring for receiving the bearing body, into which project at least two opposite-lying guide projections of the inner ring segments, said projections running along the circumferential direction of the guide vane ring. The bearing bodyis arranged in the guide channel of the inner ring segments, and the at least two guide projections of the inner ring segments engage in at least two guide grooves of the bearing body.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a compressor comprising a rotor defining a radial direction and a circumferential direction, the rotor including a slot; a first blade and a second blade disposed in the slot, the first blade including a first platform and a first dovetail, the second blade including a second platform and a second dovetail; and a hollow block disposed circumferentially between the first blade and the second blade in the slot, the hollow block including: a platform interface portion to interface with the first platform and the second platform, the platform interface portion including a central opening defined by a circumferential face of the platform interface portion; and a hollow dovetail interface portion to couple the first dovetail and the second dovetail.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for a compressor including a rotor defining a circumferential direction, wherein the rotor includes a slot, the slot including a first neck portion, a first blade and a second blade disposed circumferentially apart in the slot, and a block disposed in the slot circumferentially between the first blade and the second blade, the block including second neck portion, the first neck portion to at least partially interface the second neck portion.

A manufacturing system manufactures a rotating assembly by attaching a plurality of attached target members in a circumferential direction of a rotating main body portion. A storage member capable of storing the plurality of attached target members is placed on a stand. A measurement device measures a physical amount of the attached target member An attachment device attaches one attached target member to a predetermined position in the circumferential direction of the rotating main body portion based on the physical amount measured by the measurement device A transfer device transfers the attached target member.

A tandem rotor disk apparatus may include a rotor disk body concentric about an axis. The tandem rotor disk apparatus may also include a first blade extending radially outward of the rotor disk body and a second blade extending radially outward of the rotor disk body. The first blade may be offset from the second blade in a direction parallel to the axis. The tandem rotor disk apparatus may be implemented in a gas turbine engine with no intervening stator vane stages disposed between the first blade and the second blade.

A composite rotatable assembly for an axial flow compressor comprises a spool having a plurality of blade assemblies arranged in stages on the spool and attached thereto by a wound band. Each blade assembly comprises a blade and a base, with the base having a forward tang extending axially forward of a leading edge of the blade and an aft tang extending axially aft of a trailing edge of the blade. The band is wound over at least a portion of the forward and aft tangs of the plurality of blade assemblies to hold the blade assemblies to the spool under centrifugal loading. An abradable layer may be added over the wound band.

A workpiece clamp device with single side is disclosed. When a bolt is screwed in relative to a base plane, an elastic member is compressed by a first and a second stop portions and a second clamp surface of a driving block is limited by a second wall surface. A first inclined surface is pushed leftward by a second inclined surface so that a tool is clamped by the first clamp surface and a first wall surface. When the bolt is screwed out relative to the base plane, the elastic member is reset due to the compression of the first and the second stop portions. Since the second clamp surface is limited by a second wall surface, the first inclined surface is pushed rightward by the second inclined surface to move the driving block upward so that the force for clamping the tool is released and the tool is disassembled.

A compressor disc for a compressor of a gas turbine engine includes a circumferentially extending groove for receiving blade roots of a plurality of compressor blades. The circumferentially extending groove includes a planar surface offset into the groove.
